摘要: A method of controlling an aeronautical gas turbine engine may be performed with an electronic controller. The method may include determining an airfoil pitch control command for at least one of a plurality of airfoils of the aeronautical gas turbine engine based at least in part on an excitation load acting upon the aeronautical gas turbine engine, and outputting the airfoil pitch control command to one or more actuators actuatable to change a pitch angle of the at least one of the plurality of airfoils. The airfoil pitch control command may be configured to augment and/or compensate for the excitation load acting upon the aeronautical gas turbine engine. The method may be embodied by a non-transitory computer-readable medium that includes computer-executable instructions, which when executed by a processor associated with the electronic controller, cause the electronic controller to perform the method.

摘要: An open rotor engine includes a core engine, a plurality of guide vanes positioned within or extending from the core engine; and a pitch change assembly operably coupled to the plurality of guide vanes. The pitch change assembly includes one or more actuators configured to change a pitch angle of respective ones of the plurality of guide vanes, and a plurality of linkage arms that are respectively movable by actuation of at least one of the one or more actuators. The plurality of linkage arms are directly or indirectly coupled to a corresponding one of the plurality of guide vanes. The plurality of linkage arms may have a length that differs from one another, and such length may orient a displacement or a range of motion of the respective linkage arm to an envelope of rotation about a guide vane axis that differs as between the plurality of guide vanes.

摘要: An open rotor aeronautical engine may include a core engine, a plurality of unducted airfoils, and a pitch change assembly. The pitch change assembly may include an ensemble actuator assembly and a unitary actuator assembly. The ensemble actuator assembly may have one or more ensemble actuators and a unison ring that is movable by actuation of the one or more ensemble actuators to collectively change a pitch angle of the plurality of unducted airfoils. The unitary actuator assembly comprising a plurality of unitary actuators respectively coupled to a corresponding one of the plurality of unducted airfoils, the plurality of unitary actuators respectively movable to change the pitch angle of the corresponding one of the plurality of unducted airfoils.

摘要: A turbine engine including a first static structure comprising a first material defining a first thermal expansion coefficient and a second static structure comprising a second material defining a second thermal expansion coefficient different from the first thermal expansion coefficient. The first static structure and the second static structure are together disposed in adjacent arrangement along a load direction. The first static structure and the second static structure together selectively define a gap therebetween along the load direction based at least on a load difference between the first static structure and the second static structure.
